Masculine love is not corrupted by the evils of homosexuality.
Masculine love embraces brotherhood, beauty, honor, and getting carried to the achingly beautiful heights of artistic beauty by a lovely ballad played by your favorite MALE pianist . |
Date: August 31st, 2007 7:47 AM Author: Floppy tripping box office Charles Gill (pros.): What is, "the love that dares not speak its name?"
Wilde: "The love that dares not speak its name" in this century is such a great affection of an elder for a younger man as there was between David and Jonathan, such as Plato made the very basis of his philosophy, and such as you find in the sonnets of Michelangelo and Shakespeare. It is that deep spiritual affection that is as pure as it is perfect. It dictates and pervades great works of art, like those of Shakespeare and Michelangelo, and those two letters of mine, such as they are. It is in this century misunderstood, so much misunderstood that it may be described as "the love that dares not speak its name," and on that account of it I am placed where I am now. It is beautiful, it is fine, it is the noblest form of affection. There is nothing unnatural about it. It is intellectual, and it repeatedly exists between an older and a younger man, when the older man has intellect, and the younger man has all the joy, hope and glamour of life before him. That it should be so, the world does not understand. The world mocks at it, and sometimes puts one in the pillory for it." |

Date: August 31st, 2007 3:51 PM Author: Lavender Voyeur Interesting quote. I had no idea that Wilde's views were so similar to mine.
However, true masculine love does NOT include homosexual sex. If Oscar Wilde did actually have sex with another man, then he was a hypocrite and did not uphold the ideals of true masculine love.

Date: August 31st, 2007 4:19 PM Author: Lavender Voyeur I thought so, but his philosophical outlook on masculine love does look pure judging from that quote. I guess he allowed his mind to become corrupted. *sigh* (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=679316&forum_id=2#8583192) |
